    Mostly for personal curiosity reasons:

    Many modern languages provides something called interator (sic?), ... it will be really cool, if you can write this in Python.

    Since this isn't Python, but Perl, where
    my $file = './test_file'; #my $line = inFile->new($file); open (my $FILE, '<', $file) || die "failed to open $fname ($!)\n"; while (<$FILE>) { #print $line->getLine(); print; } close $FILE || die "failed to open $fname ($!)\n";
    Should suffice.

    This may not be substantial for a short exercise, but if this is a base for a bigger application, it could cause it to bloat. Any reason why you picked this way to "Do It"?

    Software speaks in tongues of man; I debug, therefore I code.
